You have my sympathies, Roy. I know just what you mean. For six years I
was heavily involved with the IARU Intruder Watch and, like you, my
address was in a lot of people's address books, with the expected result
whenever any of those computers became infected. One particularly
embarrassing infection sent an infected message every few days to the U.S.
FCC, and of course I would get the FCC's automatic reply saying that an
"unacceptable attachment" had been deleted from "my" message to them.
This went on for about six months and I was never sure whether it was just
due to some idiot who never ran a virus scanner or was actually malicious.
I suspect the latter. They say education would solve a lot of these
problems but I have often wished there was some silver bullet that could
be sent to the offending computers HI.

Good luck and 73,
